A Back to School Checklist for Insurance

Published: September 17, 2014

Fall has long been associated with change, and for good reason. The warm weather gives way to cooler temperatures. Leaves go from green to an explosive array of reds, yellows, and browns before falling away entirely. Everything suddenly seems to have a “pumpkin” variation to it. And the biggest change of all -- the kids head back to school.

The process of transitioning back to school generally involves a lot of checklists to make sure nothing is forgotten. Does your child have all the books they need? Do they know their new class schedule? Do they have new clothes, new pencils, new notebooks, and everything else they’ll need to succeed?

While you’re making checklists -- and since it’s a period of change -- it’s a good time to take a look at your current insurance policies and make sure you have all the policies you need and that they provide as much coverage as is necessary, given your current lifestyle.

Here are some things to get your checklist started:

Did you move into an apartment? If so, you should definitely have plenty of renter’s insurance.

Did you buy a home? You’re required to have homeowners’ insurance, but now’s a good time to look it over and make sure you have full coverage.

Did you have a baby? Time to review your life insurance policy, and bump it up if need be.

Did you start a business? Commercial insurance is a must!

Starting an insurance checklist can be daunting, but you don’t have to do it alone. Now that the kids are off to school, contact us anytime and we’ll be happy to help you along!
